French onion chicken may not be the neatest or prettiest dish on the blog (most comfort food isn't), but it is absolutely PACKED with flavor! If you're a fan of French onion soup, you're going to love this one.

I’m extremely particular about my cream of crab soup. It’s a favorite of mine and easy to find here in Maryland but, frustratingly, too many places don’t do a good job with such a simple recipe. My recipe tackles some of my biggest pet peeves with this classic soup.

I shared this alfredo sauce in my fettuccine alfredo post last year, and it was a smash hit. Today I'm sharing that same sauce but in a standalone recipe, just in case you don't feel like serving it over pasta. It's easy, creamy, velvety smooth, and even though it's not truly authentic, this alfredo is still amazing!

It's been quite a long time since I've shared a savory recipe! After lots of Christmas cookies and festive desserts last month, this pink sauce pasta is the *perfect* recipe to get us back into the swing of things. It makes such a cozy meal for winter!

Soup weather is upon us, and I'm here for it. Not only do soups guarantee easy clean-up (one pot from start to finish!), but they're also incredibly hearty and cozy. Sometimes they're just what your soul needs on a cold day! Today's tomato soup recipe is all of those things and more; it's quick and easy to make, packed full of tomato flavor, and beautifully balanced, thanks to a key secret ingredient!

What do you usually do with your Thanksgiving turkey leftovers?  Do you pick at them cold from the fridge, like my sister? Do you slap them on bread and have dry turkey sandwiches, like my dad? Or do you revive them by making something totally new, delicious, and cozy, like a turkey pot pie?

Whether you are hosting Thanksgiving this year or simply bringing a dish, side dishes should be a definite consideration. Do you want something creamy and rich, crisp and crunchy, soft and fluffy? Maybe even one of each? That's where this Thanksgiving side dishes recipe roundup comes in handy--I've put all the options in one easy list!

Truth be told, this is sausage stuffing is my favorite Thanksgiving side dish (yes, even more than green bean casserole--can you tell I have a hard time choosing though?!). My dad makes this dish every year, and every year I look forward to it!

My green bean casserole recipe is like the classic version you grew up with, but better. Made with fresh green beans and a from-scratch mushroom base, my recipe is creamy and rich (but not too rich) with a crisp-crunchy French fried onion topping. It's incredibly satisfying and one of my favorite thanksgiving side dishes!

Take your roasted brussels sprouts to the next level and make maple glazed brussels sprouts! Truly, if anything on my website could be called a flavor bomb, this recipe would be it. These sprouts are lightly sweet with a sticky maple glaze, smokey paprika, and crisp bacon. They are so amazing, I could barely take any photos because everyone just wanted to eat them right off the baking sheet!

Need a quick dinner side? My maple glazed carrots are bursting with flavor but take just minutes to make. We'll cook them in a buttery brown sugar and maple glaze that's perfectly sweet and fresh, thanks to some fresh thyme.

Smooth, rich, incredibly flavored...the list of adjectives to describe this homemade vodka sauce recipe are truly endless and most definitely hunger-inducing!

Looking for a new dish for your dinner rotation? Spaghetti with meat sauce is one of my family's favorite weeknight meals! My recipe comes together in one pot on the stove, and it's just as easy as making sloppy joes (another family favorite!).

There's so much to love about this Greek chicken orzo. From the amazing medley of flavors (bright lemons, salty olives, buttery artichokes, punchy onions, fresh herbs) to the fast cook time (just 25 minutes!). Oh, and let's not forget that it's a one pot meal!

Subtly sweet and creamy, the flavors in this beautiful butternut squash soup pair so eloquently. This is a unique and satisfying soup that was truly made for fall!

The humble pot roast.

Today's creamy chicken noodle soup is perfect for when cold weather or a cold strikes! I took my favorite basic chicken noodle soup base and gently enhanced it to make it subtly creamy. The end result is irresistible and oh so good; it's hearty and satisfying without being too heavy.

Crispy edges and juicy insides, these smash burgers are easy to make and come together in a FLASH! The burgers are cooked through (well done, no pink inside), but because they are so thin, they stay flavorful, tender, and juicy.

This quiche lorraine recipe comes to you by email request from reader Mary Jo G! I always appreciate your recipe requests and try to make them as I am able, so please keep sending them. This was a fun one!

I'm taking a short break from the sweets to share this savory (and spicy!) arrabiata sauce. Full of flavor and plenty of heat, this spicy tomato sauce is an Italian classic!

Fun fact: after briefly working with me at Arby’s (where I fell in love with jalapeno poppers), Zach worked as a seafood associate at a grocery store through high school and college. This maple glazed salmon was the first meal he ever cooked for me. I’d actually never eaten salmon before, and this first experience was eye opening! He served it with pineapple and jalapeno over a bed of rice, and the flavors were simply amazing.

This super easy chicken salad recipe is a welcome addition to my collection of salads! Not only does my recipe taste better than anything you'll pick up at a deli, but it's also perfect for making in advance (and tastes better that way!). It stands proud among its companions here on the blog (shrimp pasta salad, corn salad, and potato salad--to name a few) and is equally as simple and satisfying. Also, I'm sharing it just in time for summer lunches or picnics--yay!

These jalapeno poppers were inspired by one of my favorite snacks from back in the day when, as a teenager, I worked at a local Arby's restaurant (this is where I actually met my husband!).
